Safety with LifeSupport & Amor

As we prepare to embark on our summer Mexico House Building Mission, (Life Support’s 15th year) we would like to assure our family and friends that we are mindful about the health and safety of our team members.

We have certified EMTs (emergency medical technicians) on our team, an emergency plan, and a partnership with Amor, with whom we work when we are in Tijuana. Like Amor, each policy and practice that LifeSupportM.org has in place regarding security and safety is preventative and proactive.

Below is some safety information excerpted from Amor.org:

Amor has always been proactive about safety matters. For the past 32 years, Amor has worked hard to provide the best security and safety for all individuals involved. Amor considers the safety of the groups and Team Members its’ first priority.

News stories about personal safety in the regions that the house building teams serve have made the headlines and may be a source of concern for parents and leaders of future Amor Mission Trip participants.  Because of this, Amor has built a strong presence in Mexico over these past 32 years through excellent relations with the local government, the police, and the communities that are served. Because of these relationships, Amor is equipped to deal with any and all safety issues that might arise.

There are people in need all over the world and we ask that you continue to send good thoughts to the families living throughout the world who are struggling without hope and to our group as we set out to do this important work.
